Inspectors ordered the two inside bars and the lobby closed Wednesday after finding that construction was blocking exits, Sampson said. The outside patio bar was allowed to remain open and was doing a brisk Spring Break business Wednesday night.

The Candy Store, at One N. Atlantic Blvd., was under a ``fire watch`` and three fire inspectors were assigned to monitor construction around the clock, Sampson said. The inside bars, including the upstairs disco, may be reopened today if it passes an inspection by city building officials, he said.
